What I want to know though is how the costs blew out from $2.7bil to $6bil-7bil? I know they were only announced as having the games last year, but do we know when they would have done the proposal and budget? That’s an absolutely massive difference.
Absolutely.

I’ve seen construction quotes that have doubled in the last 2 years.
The construction sector has gone spastic in the last couple of years and contracts with hard completion dates are a license for trades to print money.
My guess… probably the usually grifting and bribing that tags along with these sort of events like the Olympics and FIFA World Cup.
Glad to see some pushback on this shit. Too many people turn a blind eye because it’s supposedly a big grand event.
